Deep Blue

Living The Dream

Hunter Gatherers in Camarinas

22 August 2007 | 43 07'N:09 10'W
Arrived in the fishing town of Camarinas on Saturday night and squeezed Deep Blue into the sliver of space that they allocated to us.

On Sunday, we went onto the beach to look for some dinner! The pilot book said that it was a good place to find shellfish and they were right. Between we found enough mussels and cockles for a starter and a main course. Only Chris had done this before so we followed his instructions. It was really easy and with a little white wine, garlic, onions and cream the mussels slipped down a treat followed by Spaghetti a la Vongole.

It was a great sense of achievement finding your own food and much better than a trip to Sainsbury's anyday.
